+ Filter button (view all posts by a single person in a thread)
By clicking on this button you can see all the posts made by a single user in a thread. It's also extremely useful for stalking people.

This should be free...

I'm starting to wish people took their charitable feelings towards something that actually matters, like people dying and such. Donating to other relatively wealthy people just doesn't seem right.

So noone should spend their money on what they want because there are people dying somewhere in the world? How do you sleep at night knowing your money went to paying for your internet instead of to someone dying in a 3rd world country? Shame on you.

To quote the OP...

Why didn't all these features exist already for free?
We've actually considered this quite a bit in the past. The reason is these features can't really be justified for all users for various reasons, like server load, spam concerns, or cost. As for the future, rest assured, if a feature is "core" to TL users we won't be making it premium-only, and we'll continue to improve the site for everyone as we've always done.

The way the forum software works, if everyone could filter, it would kill the server. It's the same reason why All can't be a feature for everyone as well.

"+ Private TL+ Forum - In this private forum, all TL+ members will become best friends. What will be in this forum? What does your heart tell you? Follow your dreams."

I can tell how this'll look already: like a bunch of stuffed up executive-looking men with stuffy airs and glasses of Merlot swirling in crystal goblets, each discussing "sophisticated" topics to one another with a "refined" demeanor.

dAPhREAk: Ohhh, did you hear about the recent GSL Finals, my boy? I dare say, throughout the entire Live Report thread, KwarK delivered a number of strict bans in convincing fashion.
Caihead: H'indeed, dear good sir! 'Twas a wonder users continued to whine and complain about Zergs who happened to quilt.
both: Ba ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!

[/kidding]

I've wanted to monetarily support TL for awhile now. I will strongly consider this avenue.

This is bad because.. hey wait a second.. shit..

On a more serious note its about time that TL introduced this to the website. An optional subscription based membership not only gives the website the an ability to offer more stuff that otherwise would not be possible due to heavy serverload etc, but it will also show who the people are that really seems to appreciate the website (enough to pay for it) and they should do something with that information This is common practice for really large websites that uses a business model, such as the Authority model.

I like this a lot.. never saw any ads here and never bothered to find out how to tell my brower to not filter TL ads so this is a nice way of supporting TL directly.

Bought it, love TL

interesting addition. Should help generate more revenue for the site. That 1000 post a page sounds amazing!

I don't think I need any of these features but it will be fun to have something we can throw around at people as rewards for making awesome posts.

Judging from the way people are gifting and actually doing it (because everyone just wants to support the site so much apparently) it's probably going to happen anyway. I guess that's what R1CH was testing over the last week or so.

That's what the star icon and green text (or whatever text it is in the strategy forum is for).
